LMAOh boy I should have replied a lot sooner! Please forgive me!

It was so great watching Lois and Clark start to become closer. A genuine friendship is definitely there--so much more than just work partners. And there is such an undercurrent of attraction. You can tell Lois is head over heals for Clark--and Clark...he, IMO, is having a bit of a revelation that a 'relationship' can be so much MORE than what he has with Lana. Respect, common interests, attraction, longing--it's all there between Lois and Clark.
Precisely! The above lists all the ingredients for a successful relationship. Attraction is what you see. Infatuation is what you feel. But lasting love is what you know. These two are building on the first, touching on the second and working hard on the third.
